I urge you to #ThinkBabies & invest in programs that support babies and families living in poverty, including increases of $1.5 billion for #HeadStart EarlyHeadStart & $2.4 billion for #CCDBG. http://bit.ly/2m7Q2kZ

Nearly 1 in 5 US babies live in poverty (@uscensusbureau). #DYK infants/toddlers in poverty are more likely to fall behind? #Congress, #ThinkBabies & invest in programs that work! http://bit.ly/2m7Q2kZ

#DYK poverty rates are disproportionately high for young children of color, according to new @uscensusbureau data? #Congress, #ThinkBabies & invest in programs that work! http://bit.ly/2m7Q2kZ

By age 2, kids in poverty are at risk of falling behind their peers. And yet, only 8% of eligible infants/toddlers are enrolled in #EarlyHeadStart. #Congress, #ThinkBabies & invest in programs that work! http://bit.ly/2m7Q2kZ
